Overview of my work:
Live computer performances, noise/music, tekno, soundscapes; home made controllers attached to body; organise experimental music/live computer music events (noise=noise, hac...); I have performed my work in galleries, squats, pub cellars, theatres, the odd town hall, small festivals, and beaches in the UK and abroad.
Overview of my main project:
Sensory Response Systems
Sensory Response Systems is an exploration into audio-visual performance using an array of sensors responsive to physical movements in order to control the audio-visual output in programs such as pd and Max/MSP. It also looks at reshaping and replicating the body through the use of fabric, textiles and technology. The first essay for it can be found here |_|
Areas of interest are embodiment; possession-trance and ritual; tekkno, noise and hypnosis; physical movement to control sound/lights/robotics.
My work seeks an interdisciplinary approach involving computing, sound/music, physical performance, textiles, robotics and electronics.
